Lots of wildlife! Thanks for sharing!

Went and looked at the first website, wow what beautiful fabrics they carry. Found a couple I wouldn't mind spending that kind of money on, IF I was better at quilting and had specific project in mind, like for a quilt for a gift for a wedding or something like that. But mostly they are out of my price range. Thanks for sharing the sites though.

Did you find any other shops while ashore in other towns/ I loved the one in Juneau
|
I hope you enjoyed your cruise to Alaska as much as the one I went on several years ago! It was an experience I will NEVER forget. If I could afford to do it again, I would do it in the blink of an eye!!! :thumbup: :thumbup: Thanks for the link!! The store looks amazing! :D

They have animal prints - bears, moose, whales etc - wooded scenes - birds - northern lights and for those of you who also knit and crochet - alaskan yarns check this out: www.quiltalaska.com www.changingthreads.com their fabrics are high quality and not real pricey (1/2 yd for $5.25-$5.50) and they have some unusual kits as well. They ship USPS - what a great surprise I came home to ! |
HEY THANKS FOR THE LINKS!
YOU KNOW YOU ARE A QUILTER, WHEN????? YOU TAKE A CRUISE AND FIND A SHOP! :D Julie |
I found that shop and two more at other stops on my cruise to Alaska 6 or 7 years ago. We are going again the end of July. I hope I have a chance to hit them all again. I made a wallhanging from some fabric I purchased in Alaska on my previous cruise. It hangs in my TV room as a pleasant reminder of that cruise. Naturally everything in Alaska costs more since it all is either shipped or flown in from the lower 48 or elsewhere. Many places in Alaska are only available by small plane.
